Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Poet Tanka

Notes About The Poem

Summer Weds Winter

SUMMER WEDS WINTER

icy angels fall
they coat white the earthly grounds
lovers rest up-close
thawing the cold-blooded air
summer heat weds winter chill

Andrea Dietrich March 7, 2015 at 12:03 AM Olive, the idea of this tanka is just wonderful. My only advice would be to use an S on Wed. Summer "weds" winter. The entire poem is in the present tense, and I was wanting to see the ending line be the same way. I really like what you were saying. congrats. Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser March 7, 2015 at 4:57 AM thANKS Andrea for the placement... :)
